I know Walmart has raised their prices across the board on ammo. I know its how the market works but I really wish all the paranoids would settle down. I've only recently become a gun owner but so far its been a hell of a time finding my gun and now ammo.

Think it will only get worse or continue this way for the foreseeable future unfortunately. Too many people buying 50 boxes at a time, failing to realize they are screwing their own. Oh well, good luck & hope score ammo soon.

I work at Walmart. As of today, our store has put in multiple orders from manufacturers. They haven't been shipped because there is nothing to ship. Same with the ar-15's and other hot ticket items we have ordered but not received. I have not heard of even the rumor that we are going to stop selling ammo or ar's, unless the law prohibits us from selling it.

Our recent orders have taken the bulk buying into account. We're buying more, but displaying less with all new orders. My guess is they want to have more people getting some, rather than a few people getting all simply because each person that comes to buy ammo, might buy other stuff whil they are in there. This is only a guess, not anything confirmed.

Good idea.
I am tired of people buying every box of ammo, or box of primers. there is someone on GT boasting he has something like 20,000 primers. And that is why no one else can get them and the pries rise....

I talked to Bill at On target ammo. They would be working overtime, but brass/cases are getting hard to find.

So the manager at the store he was at this morning called WM home office on the spot and spoke to someone who told her they were not ordering any more ammo nationwide.........

And yet the fact that the country's largest seller of ammo stops ordering it to thus stop selling it, in the middle of a nationwide debate on a possible new AWB that might be introduced with days and this does not make the nation news.....

That manager must have some awesome connections at WM home office. On a Saturday no less when WM home office is basically closed......

I have shooting supplies that I have bought over the last several years. So me saying that I have multiple thousands of anything is not an issue. You have the issue. Get off your ass and go buy things ahead of time and quit biotching about people who had the fore sight that you didn't.

This can't go and won't go on forever. Just like everything else, once the rush is done (and regardless of what Washington does) prices will go back down and supplies will go back up once people regain there sanity. It will take a while but it will happen. Just like gas when prices get high people stop buying and price goes down. The public has ultimate control on this matter. If they don't buy at $XX per box then the prices drop accordingly or a sale happens. I think patience is key here.
